[BEAUTY] - RAN COSMETIC - One Brand Review + Video Tutorial

Smooth and poreless skin, feeling the most beautiful version of yourself, who wouldn't want that? So, without any further due, let’s move on to this shocking thing. You’ll just know why.


 

IT IS THE PACKAGE FROM RAN COSMETIC INDONESIA! Founded by a well-known, prodigious Thai MUA named Nong Chat, Ran Cosmetic products are just indescribable! As perfect as Nong Chat’s makeup result. So The @ran_cosmetic_indonesia is basically the sole distributor of Ran Cosmetic.

So without any further due, let’s start the list:

1. AMBER – Heaven on Earth Serum

Global Anti Aging
As the name implies, this Amber Serum is really like heaven-on-earth. My skin sometimes went dry (and becomes drier everytime I’m lazy to use skin care lol). The biggest impact is that the makeup artists can hardly find the right foundation for me as matte thingies make my skin got crack and of course nobody would want that.

And as Ran products are mostly full coverage and soft matte, of course I was a little bit curious if the makeup is ‘secure’ for my skin. And it really is! Especially when it is supported by using this serum before the makeup. This is really moist, but not that kind of moist that really heavy and sticky. This really feels comfortable.

One thing about it, the color of the serum itself is yellow, I doubted that at the very first place, worried that my skin would get yellowish, yet it’s not. The color is just blended with my skin color.
(By the way I also use this for other makeup and it is like your life saver for matte makeup if your skin type is dry as it balances the moisture of your skin.

2. RAN – Water Magnet Base (Gel Base)

The color is clear (as you can see here) and I like the texture. It is quite moist and if you use this, it makes your entire make up last longer (till 18 hours). When I did my makeup at 10am my makeup is still very nice and I didn’t need to touch up (just use oil absorbing sheets on my T-zone if it’s getting oily). By the way, it has a very soft smell that you won’t deny, more like flowers scent, perhaps?



3. RAN – Retouch Skin Foundation

Start from the packaging, I really like it, it is made from acrylic so that it feels firm. You can easily pump it and get the foundation. I like the scent, is more like floral but in a very least level (very soft).

Move to the foundation itself, the texture is soft and it doesn’t feel too creamy, also not that heavy. The coverage? No doubt. It is really full coverage type of foundation that could cover up your pores and acne scars. I usually use like 2-3 pumps and it is more than enough.

The finish is satin touch and smooth natural, like the naturally perfect version of your skin! Haha. I just love how my face looks after applying this foundation. And also, as my skin is sensitive, I’m really grateful that this product doesn’t cause any damage to my skin. It’s safe for you girls who also have sensitive skin! Haha

4. RAN – Retouch Powder (Anti Pollution)

If you follow @ran_cosmetic_indonesia, you’ll know how it is such like a holy grail. This is the newest type of their compact powder. It is high in coverage (same like the first version of the powder) but with waterproof feature! Isn’t that insane?

And then it’s also getting more insane that both their foundation and powder oxidizes in a different way, as you know, the oxidizing makeup usually makes the makeup gone darker. However, it is a completely different story with Ran Cosmetic. The oxidation makes your make up glowing and lighter at the end of the day! Too crazy and I proved it!

5. SIVANNA COLORS – Eyebrow Pencil

So I got this one also from @ran_cosmetic_indonesia. Yup, they don’t just sell Ran Cosmetic products but also other brands that they collaborate with. I got the NO-03 shade and it is more like dark ash brown. You can see the result at my photos below.

The texture is not creamy yet it is quite pigmented. To get soft color, don’t press too strong when applying. It also got a spoolie (on the other side) to blend the eyebrow color. Isn’t that complete?!

6. CONFIRM – Big Eye Pen Liner

I would’t explain about the packaging as it is already great. Let’s talk about the function of the product.

As on the package, this it really waterproof (and also oil proof!) and last for 24 hours and it is. The color is deep black which is super pigmented. The brush tip is quite small so although it’s quite hard to handle for a newbie, it is realty great to create wing liner! But.. this pen liner is easily gone dry T.T After some times of using, it is getting hard to apply. But after some time, the ink gets back again and is usable, sometimes it gets hard to apply again, and so on :”) I think you might need to shake it before use.

So this is the end of the review. I hope you girls get the information needed. And here is the complete tutorial video. Thank you for reading!

[BEAUTY] - Photoshoot with RAN COSMETIC INDONESIA

Hey blog buddy, back with me again Amelita.
How are you guys? Is everything alright? Anyway, this is not like a formal review or any other review, it is more like sharing my experience. Is that alright? I hope it is 😉

So it was my experience with Ran Cosmetic Indonesia. Becoming their photoshoot model, I’m startled about everything. Ok I’ll tell you later why, but let’s go back to the timeline sequence. So the day before, I was wondering about how their studio would be like, how the owner would be like, and etc.. *as always*

Until the day after.. Yup! It’s the D-day and I was both excited and nervous. You know, as an ambivert, there are some moments when I become very introvert and nervous (Who’s with me?). But I keep on convincing myself that everything would be alright, moreover, it all would be great.

Long story short, I arrived in their HQ. It took me just like 25 minutes to get there and of course I was still in a full energy. Greeted with a pretty young woman who let me to get inside, “Oh I guess this is the owner” I said to myself.

Here is the facts that I immediately got. First, the Ran Cosmetic Indonesia here is actually the sole distributor in Indonesia. Second, Kak Natcha, the owner of Ran Cosmetic Indonesia is a Thai and is also a makeup artist. No wonder she looks like it. And as we all know, The Ran Cosmetic itself is owned by the prodigious Thai MUA, Nongchat. You can scroll his timeline and feel how you keep on being shocked for every masterpiece he made. His makeup look is more like natural beauty.

Long story short *again*, Kak Natcha has done the make up all over my face, using all Ran Cosmetic products + other brands that are sold in Ran Cosmetic Indonesia’s Instagram account, here are the results.


On the black tank top is the first makeup before touch up and with double falsies, and on the blue dress is my look after touched up and added 1 more pair of fake lashes. How do you think? Do you like the result? Does this fit me well?


By the way, I also got their product series. I’ll review completely on the next blog. Keep in touch and thank you for reading this!

[BEAUTY] - ElshéSkin - ALL LIP PRODUCTS!

Are you in search of a nice lip products that are subtle and friendly to your lips? I know how lips condition can be annoying sometimes. Yup, if you're having a chapped lips now I really knooowww how it feels and how you keep reconsidering everytime you're going a new lip products. Why? Because you doubt the quality of it. Because you don't think it won't make your lips gone even drier. Because you don't think the color is exactly the same when it is applied to your lips.

Buttt...... Here comes the magic!
So I receive this package from ElshéSkin, anddd... I was so surprised about everything.
First, the package.



It comes in a very neat packaging and that is the type that you would be like "Oh my God I got a gift! I can't wait to open it." I feel so pleased and as a visual-oriented person, I know how a plus point if a business cares about their packaging as well as their products quality. Btw, if I'm not mistaken, they also use this gift box to their buyer as well (not just for endorsement or business collaborations).



So, here is the inside look! I CAN'T HANDLE THIS ANYMORE. This is toooo cute.  And oh! They don't just have the lipsticks, but also the lip care products. 



1. Lip Sugar Scrub





The packaging
It comes in a jar packaging (as how lip sugar scrub usually is) and the design looks elegant as it just has the brand and product's type and function, and also simple as the color is white with a little touch of red for the writing.

The product
I LOVE IT! Been using this for 1 week, twice everyday (isn't that obvious that I've loved it from the very first time?), I saw a significant impact to my lips! They were all chapped before, but now it magically becomes very smooth. Why?

Formulated from sugar, honey, and Oryza Sativa powder, it helps lifting dead skin cells and dry area of your lips. Exfoliating with ElsheSkin will just solve your chapped lips problem!

This product has a very soft aroma (you will always want to smell it, really). Andd.. you just have to rub it gently on all lip areas and you can immediately feel the tenderness of your lips. For permanent result you need to do it regularly at least once at night before you sleep (except you really love it just like me LOL).

2. Lip Serum



The packaging
They choose tube as their packaging and the design is as simple and elegant as other products. 

The product
The texture is really really smooth and the smell is similar to the lip scrub. Of course I love this also, and you feel like your lips becomes very healthy after applying this.

The lip serum will help you to get back the smoothness to your lips and also their natural color. Formulated by honey, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) oil, and Vitis Vinifera (Grape) seed oil will definitely keep your lips healthy, smooth, and moist.

3. Lipsticks, of course!





The packaging
The packaging design is simple and looks confident as they choose black as the main color, you can see the color type on the bottom side of the packaging. Btw, you can see the color shade name on the back of the packaging.










The product


Take a look to these color swatches. Aren't the colors super pretty? And oh, I like the texture because it doesn't cause my lip dry at all, moreover, the finish is really smooth and it's super matte (if you love matte lipsticks you will really love this). About the durability, I tried applying it and I didn't retouch at all, already ate (I ate honey soy chicken rice and drink ice tea haha), and it is still on point after 6 hours. Crazy. And it still feel smooth and my lips didn't even become dry at all. And more info, this lipstick isn't transfer-proof but they do transfer only in a very bit level, very very slight.

By the way, let me show you the result of the color on my lips.
